Abstract
In this paper, geological characteristics of thermal resources in Gu’an County, Niutuozhen geothermal field, North China basin, are studied. The preliminary assessment of the thermal resources in this area has been given for future exploration and development. Total geothermal reserves in Gu’an county is 1003.86×1016 J, thermal water reserves is 79.08×108 m3, exploitable thermal water is 1110.63×104 m3/a, and exploitable heat energy is 105.73 MW/a.
